Narnia...NOT!

Hey you,

After looking through fashion magazines and blogs, I got interested in trying to be feminine (no I am fine, but normally clad in the non nonsense pants and shirt)...

and trying to don on dresses again.

I do realise that I have lots of them after looking through photos from yester years, but since wearing it just once, these dresses have be out of sight...

hence, out of mind.

I decided, to venture into the inner depth of my wardrobe. My mistake was...





to not have locked the bedroom door.

I was literally, in the wardrobe (nope, I do not have a walk IN wardrobe)....

I really climbed into the wardrobe.....but as soon as I was in,

kids decided to pop in the room.

"MAMA.....WHAT are you doing????"

"Oh....is it like Narnia, you enter another world from the wardrobe???!!"

Before they could all follow me in....

I came out,

With these in my hands.





No kids....I did not find another world like Narnia.

Instead I found some of my long lost dresses...YAY!!


There is a story behind everyone of them...





Modern cheogsam with beautiful embroidered flowers. Went around hunting for ethic wear for work as everyone was dressing up ethnic.

My chiffon flowy dress in baby doll cut. A last minute Eid buy.
Pedro del Hierr:
My Pedro del Hierro silk dress. Which my hubby insisted I get coz it's 'different'. I just think coz iy's MY colour.
Massimo Dutti:
My floral dress from Massimo Dutti. I remembered a newscaster wearing this on TV and ran to the store the next day to grab it.

Custom made vintage like dress. I remembered how I was trying to fit myself into this S size dress and the shop owner had to do alterations on the spot coz I wanted to wear the dress for my debut stage appearance 2 hours later! Too afraid to try it on now.



"I wish I could get more dresses by climbing into my magical wardrobe...then I can really stop shopping".

Maybe.

"Wishes do come true you know", my kids chorused.

"Not with Narnia, but with HARRY POTTER, coz that's real magic!!" hahahahah

They are just so into magic these days, coz they'll be watching the movie in a couple of hours time.

Kids.



See you later.
